Abrahams: No security threat or cover-up

Minister of Home Affairs Wilfred Abrahams has confirmed that a man who recently entered Dodds Prison with unauthorised items will not face criminal charges.

In a release yesterday, he said the man was not charged because the items, two flash drives, did not meet the threshold where they would be considered a threat to security at the St Philip jail.

He revealed that the Barbados Prison Service had received creditable information that a named individual intended to bring contraband into Dodds.
